Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to step into a more fulfilling version of yourself? Therapy is a space to explore your unique experiences, gain clarity, and create meaningful change. My work centers on helping clients navigate the complexities of their lives with compassion, curiosity, and a commitment to growth and healing. Whether you're managing career transitions, navigating relationships, or exploring your identity, I provide a collaborative approach tailored to your needs.
With a foundation in family systems theory, I help individuals understand how their personal experiences intersect with family, social, and cultural dynamics. My approach is strengths-based and rooted in justice and equity, offering tools to empower you to thrive in your relationships and within yourself.
I specialize in working with individuals from diverse backgrounds—whether you're seeking healing from intergenerational patterns, addressing stress or anxiety, or simply desiring a deeper connection to yourself and others. Together, we can uncover what's holding you back and build the skills to move forward confidently. Reach out today to begin your journey!
